Boks ready for high-stakes showdown at Twickenham
Independent on Saturday
|October 04, 2025
RASSIE Erasmus's Springboks will add another chapter to their illustrious history should they beat Argentina in London this afternoon in the final match of the 2025 Rugby Championship.
In the 30 years of the tournament, South Africa have never lifted the title two years in succession. Now they are tantalisingly close to defending the crown they won last year.
This year's Championship has been one of the most competitive in recent memory. Until last weekend, all four participating nations were still in contention. Now, it is a straight shootout between the Springboks and their old foe, New Zealand. The All Blacks face the Wallabies in Perth at 11.45am (SA time), with the Boks kicking off against Argentina at Twickenham at 3pm.

NSPCA and horseracing fraternity at odds over treatment of horses
HORSERACING is a multimillion-rand business in South Africa, but behind the glitz and glamour of racing events and the betting that goes with it, are the horses, whom the National Council of SPCAs (NSPCA) says are subject to abuse, illegal harnessing and the racing of horses that the body said were too young to participate in racing.
